    Well suited : AirDroid's bulk enrollment and policy management features make it highly effective for large-scale device deployment and management. The remote control and troubleshooting capabilities of AirDroid MDM facilitate quick problem resolution without physical intervention. AirDroid allows for secure containerization of work-related data on personal devices, ensuring the separation of personal and professional use. Not suited: AirDroid Business is designed for general mobile device management and may not cater to highly specialized device types or industries. For organizations with minimal IT capabilities, a simpler MDM solution with more streamlined features might be a better fit.

    There is no direct replacement for the on-prem Ivanti [Unified Endpoint Manager (formerly LANDESK Management Suite)] solution. Ivanti has a companion product called Neurons, but that is in additional cost, and requires configuration with your on-prem [Unified Endpoint Manager] instance to perform basic functions. If cloud-based is a requirement for your organization, this is likely a dealbreaker. You can implement [Unified Endpoint Manager] in a cloud instance such as AWS, but the support for this appears limited. If on-prem is not an issue for you, this is a great tool for device management. It has robust features, impressive inventory, massive customization options, and excellent vendor support. If Patch Management is a problem in your company right now, this is the first product I would evaluate.

    • Patch(Security) is done really well. You can use roll out projects or built-in automation as well as the use of groups and scopes to design pilot and other use cases.
    • It takes a solid inventory of what you have of your endpoints and can do an agentless scan as well if you need to collect data that way as well.
    • Provisioning is rather simple and even allows you to use other products' software for the image or the built-in if you wish to do so.
    • Software distribution works well and has a lot flexibility built into the module.

    • Setup - Boy it is a pain to configure everything correctly. Be aware that you'll probably be giving an AD service account some God rights to get everything working....and security just loves that....
    • Cost - Boy you have to pay for everything. I suppose it lets you buy into just what you want but having repeated items go through procurement is a pain if your procurement branch is a pain.

    We are happy with the product but the support and development process is far superior to any other company we have worked with. Having a good support structure is very important in today's marketplace of products that do so many things and have so many robust options and capabilities. We are very satisfied with our contract, pricing, support and product execution.

    Items are logically laid out and most are easy to find. The more advanced stuff can be trickier, but it is still not hard to find. There are a lot of options though, so remembering where some settings are, especially if you do not alter them often, can take a minute, but you will get to them fairly qiickly.

    TRM\TAM support has been generally very good. Getting reported bug fixes, design changes, UX problems resolved has been a pain. It is often difficult to get problems escalated beyond the TRM\TAM level. Support is fantastic when you can get it, getting it can often require more work than it should, and that is probably our biggest issue.

    AirDroid Business is known for being easy to use and works with Android, iPhone, and Windows devices. It's particularly good at letting IT staff fix device problems remotely. It's also budget-friendly, making it a good choice for smaller companies.
    On the other hand, Microsoft Intune works well with other Microsoft products like Office 365 and Windows. It's super secure and has many features. It's really great if most of the devices in a company use Windows. So, if a company wants an easy-to-use solution that works with many different devices, AirDroid Business is a good choice. But if a company already uses many Microsoft products and needs top-notch security, then Microsoft Intune might be the better pick. We decided with AirDroid because we have more Android devices compared to Microsoft OS Devices.

    It's been many years since I did a full evaluation of other products but at the time we purchased it, the main competitors were Microsoft's SMS and Alteris. SMS just looked horribly ugly and complicated (which fit in very well with Microsoft's other server tools) and Alteris looked okay but had a piecemeal approach where even a basic deployment meant purchasing a half dozen or more components. LANDesk had one bundle for all the tools we were looking for and had a great interface for presenting the data.

    • In a college environment, the remote control access is very helpful in resolving issues w/o running around campus.
    • Very nice to push software to multiple devices at once.
    • Software portal is useful in allowing users to get what they need without the need for a tech.
